Hurt Hip After Landing. Pain Subsided Using Ice. Why Are They Twisted Now?

I was playing football and got hit. I flew in the air and landed straight on my hip, I felt pain immediately. It hurt tho rest of the day I coul hardly sit down, get up, walk, or lay on the left side of my hip. I thought maybe it was just bruised and I iced it. It felt better for a couple of days. But yesterday I twisted my hips while running and it popped and now it feels as bad or worse than before. Can you help please?

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
HI,

Thanks for posting on HealthcareMAgic.

After reading your symptoms, I would like to suggest you a certain investigation:
MRI of the right Hip to diagnose any ligamental injury/ fracture.

Meanwhile, you can take any good analgesic and anti infkammatory drug to reduce the pain and discomfort. You must also use cold compress and rest your hip by avoiding vigorous physical activities such as running, jumping etc.

I would strongly recommend you to visit an orthopedic doctor to diagnose and treat the problem effectively.

Regards
